Diag protocol

Hello,

I search any informations about the proprietary diag protocol. I need the description of the tcp/ip packet format and the different fields (how many bytes they are coded? ...)

Where can I have those informations?

Thanks in advance.

Nico

Hi Nico,

Whilst I doubt youu2019ll find a full description of the DIAG protocol you can gain some interesting insights by sniffing it with a network capture tool such as Wireshark. A recently released plugin makes sniffing even the compressed version possible.

I have an example on my blogu2026

Whilst this concentrates mainly around the password sniffing aspect it also captures the entire GUI DIAG conversation.

Thanks

Matt
